Last year,i managed to find one leather worker over here, who was actually willing & enthusiastic enough to make me a mandolin strap - Rod Boyes of 'Pinegrove Leather' in Hebden Bridge, Yorkshire.
Since then,Rod's e-mailed me to keep me up to date with his strap designs etc. so i know that he'll soon be producing a new banjo strap(s). I received an e-mail from him yesterday, & i see that he's produced a new mandolin strap which seems as though it'll suit both "F" & "A" style mandolins. I quite like the design,especially for an "A" style 'under the extension' fit. For an "F" style,i personally still prefer a one piece strap,

Plaease note that i have no financial connection with Pinegrove Leather other than that of a being a satisfied customer,
